Publishing: The Limited
Edition
The daughter of a well-known industrialist
wanted to commemorate her father's wit and wisdom
by publishing a limited edition of his letters. We
helped edit the collection, took care of the
paperwork, and saw to the design, production and
printing of 100 copies on fine linen paper.
Another client wanted to publish a family
history and present a copy to each member of her
family. We organized her archives, researched the
European history, wrote an introductory chapter,
created a foldout family tree, and designed the
dustjacket for a unique gift that will be treasured
as an heirloom for generations.
We were also able to help Dominican College of
San Rafael publish a collection of research essays
for their first and second year Humanities
students. The faculty wrote the essays, we edited
and produced The Thread of Ariadne, and the
book became required reading. Sales will be steady
for years to come, and profits can be used for
program development rather than for publisher's
luncheons at the Four Seasons.
